Enhanced Care Association (ECA) is a not-for-profit organisation that provides centre based overnight respite and day support for people with multiple impairments and complex health needs. We provide person centred care within a family centred framework.

ECA operates Stanley Cottage which provides home like centre based respite for 12 children and young people. This enables the family time for a break and increases the children and young people’s support community enabling meaningfulness, purpose and a sense of belonging.

We also operate day support services promoting social inclusion and empowering individuals to pursue personal interests.

We are a user lead organisation in which the parents and carers form the Management Committee and provide strategic direction in all aspects of our operations.

ECA was established by a small group of parents late in 1989 and has a strong 30 year history of providing quality care.
